Bra no longer fits, but calculator says my size hasn’t changed. What should I try next?

a few years ago I measured myself and the calculator told me that my size is 30 D. I purchased a Wacoal halo unlined bra and it has fits comfortably until somewhat recently. I believe I’ve gained some weight and muscle. Now, all of the underwire digs into me, leaving marks after I remove the bra, and overall it feels too tight. So I remeasured myself, but the calculator still says that my size is 30 D. The bra feels too tight around the band, but the cups seem to be fitting mostly correct… If not a little tight on the outer sides of each cup. I like this style of bra, but this size is no longer comfortable. Would you try new sizes with larger band size, or larger cup size? Any other advice?

Band fits but extra fabric in cup of favorite style bra. Do I size up or down?

this sub helped me located my correct bra sise years ago. now i have gained weight and need to change my size from 30d to something less tight around the band and that allows for more room on the sides of my breast, where most of my tissue is.
The Wacoal lace halo underwire unlined has been my go to in size 30d. I ordered a 32c and a 32 d and hoped I wouldn’t have to do the whole measuring all over again. The 32c fits nearly perfectly, BUT the unlined cup has too much fabric at the nipple and just above and it bunches up/wrinkles.

would you size down another cup? try a different style of bra? Any thoughts? The 30d is too small in the band and cup, but there is no bunching of the fabric.

Why is the BreakTime gas station at Forum/Mills Dr. closing?

next time I get gas there I’ll go inside and ask, but I wondered if anyone had the scoop.

Why are more and more classes becoming exclusive classes?

is it because of the music they use? I don’t have peloton equipment, just the app, and I’ve noticed more and more classes, even things like stretching classes, are labeled as exclusive for the next tier of users. Curious about this change.

I just gotta shout out Ragtag

I know it gets a lot of love, but I still feel it’s underappreciated and that most folks don’t know how cool it is. This month alone, the theater is running new releases like Super Girl and Tuner, showing recent releases like Booksmart (free for members), classics like Raiders of the Lost Ark, and even participating in nationwide programming like Bleak Week (showing some decidedly…bummer movies like Donnie Darko). There are three films I’d like to see this week alone.

If you’re looking for something fun to do, or for a new thing to appreciate about CoMo, or a return to the theater for the first time in a while, Ragtag is it! And no this isn’t spon con. I just love watching movies here and before I became a member I really didn’t realize all it had to offer.
